Strategy

Prázdny

U.S. Steel Košice is transforming into a customer-oriented and competitive steel producer. For our customers, we want to deliver high-quality products with added value and innovative solutions with a lower carbon footprint.

Best for All

Best for All is our customer-oriented strategy, thanks to which we will be able to ensure a more stable and sustainable future. It is focused on innovation of products and processes with the help of investments and support of relations with customers and partners.

By offering a product portfolio, including more sustainable steels (produced with lower greenhouse gas emissions), we can satisfy our increasingly demanding customers and can achieve a more competitive position in strategic end markets with high added value and provide high-quality, sustainable solutions.

sustainability goals

Our business is in line with the global sustainable development goals (Sustainable Development Goals - SDG), which were adopted by the UN member states in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda, and to which the Slovak Republic also subscribes. As the world tries to unite around these goals, the SDGs have gained considerable interest and support from business entities around the world. We are aware of their importance and support the goals of sustainable development through our corporate mission and contribute to their achievement with our wide-ranging activities.

With its strategy, USSK aims to target three main success factors:

  • Grow its presence in attractive market segments (within current constraints and through potential future projects).
  • Continue its efforts in cost leadership acknowledging that steel is a globally traded commodity where price (and hence production costs) is one of the key buying factors.
  • Continue developing its experienced and highly dedicated workforce.

ESG AS A PATH TO SUSTAINABILITY

 

At the end of 2021, we started systematically working on the development of our company's sustainability strategy. We created an ESG / Sustainability team that covers the agenda across the entire scope of the company.

Our Company has committed to supporting the achievement of the Responsible Steel Vision and Mission . We consistently strive to increase our energy efficiency, reduce emissions, and conserve energy and other resources, while prioritizing the reuse and recycling of materials into our products to minimize our environmental footprint and be more sustainable.
